So, at the dawn
of our universe — and I have to emphasize our universe, because there could be
others — so, dawn
of our universe, physicists think there was one
type of force, one
type of matter and that as the cosmos expanded, as space expanded, it cooled and things started to condense out like snow flakes, and over time that single force broke, it differentiated; and something similar happens
in the human
body as we develop from a single
cell; we differentiate, different tissues form
in our
bodies, different layers
of tissues.
